Movie Info
The best of Universal-International's followups to Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein, Abbott & Costello Meet the Invisible Man casts Bud and Lou as mail-order private eyes. The boys champion the cause of boxer Arthur Franz, who has been framed for murder. Utilizing the formula created by Claude Rains in the original Invisible Man (1933), Franz vanishes before Dr. Gavin Muir's astonished eyes. Cloaked by invisibility, Franz talks Bud and Lou into helping him nab the real murderer, gangster

Not Funny.
Mediocre A&C packed with corn and laughs.
Funny on a par with ...Meet Frankenstein (and perhaps only falling a little short due to there being only one 'monster' to play off of).
Better than average Abbott and Costello vehicle.
My favorite of the duo's adventures into Universal Monster-Town.
